    Pity my City Link man - three flights of stairs to my flat. Same man every time. I've warned him we will be seeing a lot of each other over the next couple of weeks. My neighbours are already talking (about the deliveries - I hope! ;)). I even felt I had to explain to one of them. I said I was having a bulk delivery from chemist of Aloe Vera juice for my IBS, and it was coming in dribs and drabs (the order, not the IBS). :D I did order 9 (saving over £55) but they will think I have a very big IBS problem when they see him bringing huge boxes another five times!

    I'm even tempted to place another order as I have stuff in my basket - can't seem to stop adding it, even though I said I wouldn't order any more! I've slept on it - didn't want to be too impetuous, but I've been so pleased with what I've had up to now, so it is tempting.

    I know right, its like a drug :D, even me can't resist and i was exceptionally happy with my first order received!

    so i drove 20 miles seeking out lloyds fragrances went to 2 lloyds in sheffield -one was stripped bare but still had loads of those kids digital cameras, only fragrances they had left were kylie inverse, aprege, roxy,porshe design, zandra rhodes-Sa's couldn't have been more helpful-getting out testers etc for me!

    the other one was a much smaller store and the SA there was so vile-she was absolutely seething at me buying so many -i got 6 scarlett, 3 kylie couture, 2 britney circus, 2 j lo, 1 Katie price stunning, 3 ted baker woman, 3 ted baker london, 1 ghost, 1 hugo boss woman, 1 mens obsession. I would have bought even more if i could had she not been so stroppy. I explained I have a massive family and i was going to be putting them away. She insisted on phoning the area manager to check I was allowed to buy so many. Good job he/she said yes otherwise I would have kicked up a fuss. 10 days into the sale and if they still have so many fragrances left how can they possibly refuse to sell them to me? I am sure they had more in the stock room but didn't dare ask.......?????brave going back tomorrow

    plus they def had stuff on the shelf i have bought elsewhere in 3 for 1 promotion and they insisted it wasn't in the offer here or was more expensive eg halle berry, burberry, kate moss

    ps none of my other deliveries have arrived and Cs have told me to stop ringing and chasing my missing items so much as its confusing them

    i have been spending alot more money since i became an MSE fan, however i def will not have to buy any presents for at least a year and def think am getting more value for my money.

    Fragrances don't go off they will keep if stored properly for at least a year-they are NEVER reduced in the boots sale-well not more than 50% anyway

    Plus we are going abroad next year and we have alot of family in the 3rd world, i love giving them things. Plus if you knew me i NEVER (ok hardly)ever keep anything for myself!:(
